Time in my heart

It's almost a year.

I don't want it to be a year. Or two years. Or ten. I don't ever want anyone to forget you.

I just want more time.

I miss you Sawyer. I love you. I'll never be the same without you.

Thinking of you Michelle! I don't know how it has been almost a year for us. Time moves so fast but so slow all at once.; April 29, 2011 at 7:40 AM

Sawyer's Story

Sawyer Erik Williams was born on June 1, 2010 - at 28 weeks gestation and exactly three months before his due date. Just two days later on June 3, 2010, Sawyer died in his mother's arms.

Sawyer's life was cut drastically short by a congenital heart defect. He was diagnosed with a severe form of Tetralogy of Fallot and had many complications including a large hole between his left and right ventricles called a "ventricular septal defect" and "pulmonary atresia" - an extremely rare CHD in which the pulmonary valve does not form.

Sawyer's spirit lives on in the hearts of many who he touched so deeply in his brief life. May this blog be of comfort to other mothers, fathers, grandparents and families who have experienced the deep pain of infant loss.
